I purchased this book for use in my ECON 230 class at my local community college. I so far have sound it to be very well written. The author makes a point to communicate his information in a manner understood by all.

This textbook was interesting for and Economics Book. It was easy to understand and more interesting than my useless teacher.

Textbook for Macro-econ at University of Washington at Tacoma for Spring 2008.

The text is well organized, edited, and presented. The author communicates complicated ideas in a concise format that is not condescending. While economics is a minefield of competing political agendas, Mankiw manages to navigate through and explain conflicting ideas and how they have affected the way we understand econ. There is no pontification, hero worship, or condemnation here. The tone is mostly detached and scholarly (as you would expect from a college text) yet engaging with frequent use of real-world examples, case-studies, and hypotheticals. Whatever your personal persuasion, expect your beliefs to be challenged.

The housing and financial crises of 2007-2008 have not invalidated the concepts explained here. These are very basic macro ideas and their application is still very pertinent today. I'm glad I decided to keep this book even after I finished my econ course.

This book has mostly well written chapters that are easy to understand. It includes many real life applications that drive the points home. I needed this book for Macroeconomics in college.

It is a really a good book as any book of Mankiu, It is not doulbted.
But, because I have bought his "Microeconomics", So there is one third overlapped.
it is a small regret.

It's a good book, although somewhat dense, and I had to use it for my college Intro to Macroeconomics class. Reading through helps to understand things better.
